So feminine! Love it Nancy!

I love it Nancy. This cake is perfect. From the beautiful stenciling, & perfect bow, to the matching paper and ribbon on the cake board.

GORGEOUS! That bow is the Bomb! And I love this crown!!! Perfect stenciling!

You ladies are the best!!! :)

Love it Nancy! You really excelled yourself! :)

Very nice…..:-) Great job!

beautiful cake, love it muchh,,,, =)

Thank you all so much!!

So nice! I tried making a crown like that the other day and it was a fail….any tips?

Thank you miamipartycakes! Let me see if I can explain this without confusing you! lol

I cut out my template and it was just big enough to wrap around my 4" cake pans. I put my two pans together bottoms touching then wrapped a legal sheet of paper around them folded length wise in half so the crown would not show the crease in the middle from the pans. Then I wrapped the crown around the pans and the points slowly bent down. Although there were a few that wanted to fall more than others so I just used a prop to hold them up until they dried. After a few days of drying, I very carefully removed it from the pan (I hadn’t attached the sides yet) and then put some edible glue on the ends and put them together and let it air dry a few more days. After it was dried I airbrushed it silver then painted it with dry silver luster dust to finish it off.

Fantastic! The damask and the quilting together add such a regal feel! Well done! And thank you for the description of how you made the crown!

Oh lovely!!

Thanks so much SugarTales and Peggy!! :)

Lovely!

Nancy you deserve it… marvelous darling!! Makes me wish I was 1 again kudos to you
BTW will take a stab at that crown one day thanks for the mini tute :)

the whole cake is beautiful. i also want to mention the print that the cake is sitting on, Is that paper? and how do you cover it with? can you cover it with the same sticky paper that you cover book covers or not? and does it effect the cake results, does it make the fondant, or buttercream sweat? i was just wondering what do you cover the print on the board with?

Thank you all!! :)

@Susiecakes I cover it in a 12×12 scrap book paper then covered in clear contact paper. My cake is on a cake board to keep it food safe. Peggy Does Cakes has a tutorial on how to do it on her facebook page. It doesn’t have any effect of the fondant or buttercream at all. Hope this helps! :)
